This week in 1967: The Beatles released Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Although their previous studio album, Revolver, is now the more acclaimed, Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is arguably The Beatles' most famous work and the one that had the most influence on the music and society of its time. It had no track breaks, a message in the run-off groove and was developed loosely from Paul McCartney's concept of an album by a fictitious band. The lyrics were printed on a lavish gatefold sleeve, with its famous front cover by Peter Blake, reflecting the tenor of the time and opening doors of both perception and excess. Having retired from touring, the band was free to use the recording studio to the ultimate, with no time or financial restrictions and limited only by their own creativity. From the suite-like 'A Day In The Life', with that long thunderous chord coaxed from a bewildered orchestra, to the alleged-and-denied drug references in 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds', the beautiful 'She's Leaving Home', the sentimentality of 'When I'm Sixty Four' and George Harrison's mystical wig-out 'Within You Without You', it sparked argument and amazement in equal measure. Originally, the album was to include 'Penny Lane' and 'Strawberry Fields Forever', but that didn't stop it from becoming a benchmark; the term 'their Sgt Pepper' later applied across the board to any band's supreme lifetime achievement.

Plane Crash Victim Daniel Williams' Fiancée Reveals He Died on Their 14th Anniversary: ‘My Entire World Is in Shambles'
Hannah Ray paid tribute to her fiancé Daniel Williams, who died in a private plane crash in San Diego on May 22 Williams, a former drummer for The Devil Wears Prada, was one of the six crash victims who died on what Ray shared was exactly 14 years since they 'started our story together' "The hole you've left in all of our lives and hearts can not be measured," Ray wrote in a moving Instagram tributeHannah Ray, the fiancée of late musician Daniel Williams, is remembering the former The Devil Wears Prada drummer as "the most supportive and positive soul I've ever had the pleasure of knowing." Ray, an influencer and photographer, shared a moving message with fans and loved ones on Instagram on Friday, May 23 — one day after Williams was killed when a private jet crashed into a San Diego neighborhood. In the post, which featured images of Ray and Williams together over the years, she noted that Williams died on the 14th anniversary of them having "started our story together" on May 22, 2011. "My entire world is in shambles. The hole you've left in all of our lives and hearts can not be measured. One thing is beyond clear — How loved you are and how much you loved others, showed up and gave so much to everyone in your life," Ray began her caption. "I can't wrap my head around never getting to see you or touch you again. My heart has never felt this level of pain and I truly don't know how to carry on without you." Ray then remembered Williams as her "best friend, partner, fiancé, my biggest fan in every way" and as someone who "truly showed me the kind of love people might only ever experience once in a lifetime if at all." "We started our story together on May 22nd, 2011 ... 14 years later on May 22nd, 2025 you left us way too soon," she added. "I love you and miss you with every fiber of my being and will do my best to be the best I can for you every day still. I love you I love you I love you I love you." The Instagram carousel post featured snaps of Ray and Williams smiling together, hanging with a cat, sharing drinks and posing outside of a concert in Japan. Ray later reposted a throwback Instagram Stories video of Williams performing with metalcore band The Devil Wears Prada, which he played with from 2005 to 2016, per Revolver. Several fans and loved ones shared messages of support in the comments section of Ray's tribute, including Vic Fuentes of Pierce the Veil, who wrote that he will "never, ever forget this amazing man." "How could you? He truly was one of a kind. I loved that guy since the day I met him," Fuentes wrote. "I'll never stop talking to him and thinking of all the good times we all shared. We'll take him with us always." As previously reported, Williams was aboard a small plane that crashed in a San Diego neighborhood this week, which authorities said sparked fires in at least 15 homes. Preliminary information obtained by PEOPLE stated the Federal Aviation Administration said a Cessna 550 crashed near San Diego's Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport around 3:45 a.m., local time. The identities of all six passengers who died on the plane have since been released, with San Diego County Coroners' Office sharing the names of Dave Shapiro, 42; Emma L. Huke, 25; and Celina Marie Rose Kenyon, 36. Kendall Fortner, 24, was identified by the Associated Press as another victim, while a family member confirmed to CBS 8 that Dominic Damian also died. "Our hearts and thoughts go out to all the families affected by this tragedy, and we stand with the community during their time of need," the San Diego Police Department shared in a previous statement. Following the May 22 crash, Williams' father, Larry, told TMZ that their family is certain he was on the plane, as The Devil Wears Prada remembered the late drummer with an Instagram tribute featuring several throwback images. "♥️ no words," the band's caption read. "We owe you everything. Love you forever." Read the original article on People
